How it’s set up.

How it works

Your result sets your position on this event's board — your venue's own board. Local play does not feed a national season total.

Fair play

We play you where your game fits.

• One field, levelled by the Bridge — a newer player and a strong player get a real fight.
• Read across the rounds you post.
• If we adjust, we tell you why — and you can push back.

Honest rounds clear without a word.

At the bay

• Log into Full Swing Compete first, then launch the round your host shares for this event.
• The handicap box at the bay is optional — nothing you type there reaches your Back Nine score.
• Rough hole or tech trouble? You can stop — but finish the hole out. An unfinished hole records no score, and there's no redo.
